Does it have ALTAZ mount, encoder support?

It _appears_ to be working in GOTOs and such. But I'm waiting for feedback on "home position" since EQMod default to equatorial home position and it probably needs to be different for AZ-GTi

Got it working! Compiled from git. You need to also compile and install 3rdparty.

Did not have time for an extensive test - only slewing around in my living room.

Weather forcast is cloudy for the next 10 days...

Just found out that INDI Nightly was failing for a while now, so I just fixed the error and restarted all the builds again.

something was caching badly on the pc(not sure ) ,directly copied eqmod.cpp from git to local and compiled it . Local testing works fine with goto's in the area (not even 1 star sync) Ill try it out in the field today or tomorrow. Thanks a lot again :)
